Gas price reduction

The Domestic Energy Price Guarantee will reduce the unit cost of gas for domestic consumers from 1 October 2022. Xoserve will administer the EPG scheme and will make payments to registered Gas Suppliers on a weekly basis for the previous week. The Suppliers will need to reduce the unit price that they charge their customers, subject to a minimum unit rate.

We have published a dedicated EPG scheme webpage, more information will be added as it becomes available over the next few weeks.
